I won't duplicate the titles she already listed, so please make sure to check out her list.A Redwall Winter's Tale, by Brian Jacques, illustrated by Christopher DeniseWinter at Long Pond by William T. George, illustrated by Lindsay Barrett George ( Disclaimer, I have read Fishing at Long Pond, but not this one, so I'm basing my recommendation on that knowledge.)Stranger in the Woods by Carl R. Sams II and Jean StoickSnowmen at Night by Caralyn Buehner, illustrated by Mark Buehner (There are now many in the series, but this is the only one we have read besides the Christmas title.)Katy and the Big Snow by Virginia Lee BurtonWinter on the Farm, Laura Ingalls Wilder, illustrated by Jody Wheeler and Renee Graef (This is from the picture book series called My First Little House Books.

Hello and welcome to Prone to Wander. My name is Heather and I'm so glad you're here! I am happily married to my husband, Shane and together we are raising three lively children to the glory of God. I can be found drinking tea, reading books, out in the garden, and behind my camera, but not usually all at once. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are encouraged and inspired by your time here. I love my faithful readers and try to always reply to those who kindly comment. Thank you so much.

If we let ourselves, we shall always be waiting for some distraction or other to end before we can really get down to our work. The only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they seek it while the conditions are still unfavourable. Favourable conditions never come. ~C.S. Lewis
